System Valves
For most applications pressure regulating valves (PRV's) are needed to maintain a steady system pressure. PRV's compensate for variations in suction pressure, the pump performance curve characteristics and pressure variations due to pump sequencing.

Check valves in place of PRV's can be considered when the suction pressure is constant (i.e. suction from a reservoir or tank), the pumps are of equal size and their performance curves are relatively flat, or PRV's are installed elsewhere in the system.

Hydro-Pneumatic Tanks
Please contact Canariis for tank sizes, pressure ratings and storage capacities. For ease of handling, space considerations and maximum storage we recommend the tank be shipped as a separate item and remote mounted at the top of the building or field installed adjacent to the booster skid.
